Chapter 266
An Ruo suddenly asked him, “Are you interested in me because of what? My face?”
“And your body.”
“Do all you men love women’s faces and bodies?” she asked calmly, her tone devoid of embarrassment.
Tang Yuchen said lazily with a smile, “Otherwise, what do you think men are interested in women for? Inner beauty? I haven’t even seen your outer beauty; how could I have the inclination to see your inner beauty?”
“But beautiful women are not necessarily good women,” An Ruo couldn’t help but argue on behalf of her female peers.
“What do I need a good woman for? What do you think a good woman is? As long as they don’t play tricks in front of me and don’t betray me, they are all good women.”
She was speechless, guessing this was the difference in thinking between men and women.
Indeed, with Tang Yuchen’s high status, all he needed were beautiful women. How women’s characters were didn’t matter to him, as long as they could please him.
Not wanting to continue this tedious topic, she turned over to lie flat, closed her eyes, and indirectly told him that she wanted to sleep.
The man’s face approached hers, and his hot breath intermittently sprayed on her face.
He spoke softly, his voice hoarse, “What, are you angry? Baby, you don’t need to be angry. I like both your outer and inner beauty.”
An Ruo opened her eyes and sighed, “I’m not angry.”
How could she possibly be angry? Even if he kicked her out immediately to marry another woman, she wouldn’t be angry; she’d actually be relieved.
“Really not? But by the way you’re acting, it’s obvious you’re angry.”
The man smiled wickedly, his lips curving, and slipped a hand beneath the covers, lifting her sleepshirt’s hem to caress her belly, which didn’t have an inch of excess fat.
An Ruo’s body stiffened, knowing this was his signal for seeking pleasure. Exhausted in body and soul from yesterday’s events, she was not in the mood at all.
Catching his wrist, she frowned slightly, “I’m very tired and want to go to sleep.”
“No worries, you sleep, and I’ll do my thing,” Tang Yuchen leaned over her, his fingers suggestively stroking her belly, wandering downwards.
He kissed her lips. She tried to turn away, but he pinched her chin, making her unable to move.
His kiss was gentle, like a breeze, carrying with it a faint scent of mint, making her less resistant.
The man’s broad, warm body inexplicably gave her a sense of security.
That night, being held in his arms, she had felt the same way.
An Ruo stopped resisting, lost in his kiss and his unmistakable caresses. Everything he was doing was so intense, it was impossible to ignore and filled all her senses.
The memories of that night were chased out of her brain.
In her mind, there was only his kiss, his caresses, his body, his warmth, his scent, everything about him…
That night, An Ruo slept deeply and sweetly, without a single nightmare.
She hadn’t realized yet that Tang Yuchen’s presence was so intense, intense enough that even nightmares had to slink away in his presence.

An Xin’s health was unstable, and her emotions were constantly fluctuating.
An Ruo stayed with her every day, consoling her and not letting her leave.
As for An Xin staying here, Tang Yuchen had indirectly approved it. Since An Ruo couldn’t be at ease about her, it naturally resulted in her staying.
Summer had not completely passed yet, and the temperature was still very high when the sun was out.
